Silverwolf and I just watched this and it is horrifying. Police, insurance, medical records, income tax info, personal info. You are at risk!

Do you get unsolicited phone calls where the caller knows your last 4 social security numbers? Or to talk to you about your bank balance?

Watch this, please.

When I get unsolited, scam-type calls, I tell them that they are on a recorded line...they change their tune quick and get off the phone [Wink]

when i get calls that i don't recognize the number, i simply put them on a block, don't answer, and that way i never have to mess with them.

my sister told me in her state, ohio, that all medical records are being computerized and any doctor, can have access. this means anybody in the office does too.

soon all our records will be available to police, doctors, lawyers, heck anybody.

do not look back when the only course is forward

Honestly, I am so overwhelmed in my daily life that I can't get all charged up about this.

I believe that if someone wants the down-low on you, they'll get it one way or another.

You can have an unlisted phone number, yet people can still look up your name, address and those in your household. I can't control that, so I can't worry about it. All I can do is not be on FB, twitter, etc.

I do love the idea that LAX mom suggested: tell them they're on a recorded line! What a GREAT idea!
